Organizations
Sustain OSS – Sustain has an official podcast, where Richard Littauer, Eric Berry, Justin Dorfman, Allen Gunner, and Pia Mancini talk with guests regularly about sustaining open source. Sustain started as a regular event. Now, we’ve branched out: we not only host the main Sustain Summit, but also encourage satellite events under the sustain brand. Sustainers who’ve attended the Summit in 2020 are working hard to produce content to help other members of the ecosystem sustain their software in the long haul. (link: https://sustainoss.org/)
OSPO++ – a network and a community of collaborative open source program offices in universities, governments, and civic institutions. We’re building resources to help create OSPOs, actively engaging in discussions on how to best manage and grow open source programs, and how to garden sustainable communities that last.
